Javascript books

[Eric]

Hi,

What is the best Javascript book available? Not in terms of syntax (you can
look that up easily), but in terms of project development, to accomplish a
particular task, maybe like a cookbook? And what is the best available
javascript web resource
for the above things?

Thanks,
Eric

"Javascript & DHTML Cookbook" published by O'Reilly is very good. My
co-worker has a copy is getting some great stuff out of there.

I LOVE "Pure JavaScript" second edition. It's a comprehensive reference
also covering Document Object Model (DOM); not a tutorial. VERY
complete. 1,200+ pages thick and that's only half the book. The entire
book is on CD that comes with it.

www.codingforums.com has been very helpful. Some excellent code cutters
on that help site.

"Javascript Unleashed" was a good book for me. Easy to read, but like
most books you have to read several hundred pages to really get a lot
out of it. Javascript objects was easy to learn with this book. It's not
a "cookbook." This book is out of print I think.

www.brainjar.com has some nice tutorials and javascripts. I got some
great drop down menu code that visually behaves very well.
